Honda CR-V: When Driving / Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Instead of directly measuring the pressure in each tire, the TPMS on this
vehicle
monitors and compares the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each
wheel and tire while you are driving to determine if one or more tires are
significantly under-inflated.
This will cause the low tire pressure/TPMS
indicator to come on and a message to appear
on the driver information interface.

The system does not monitor the tires when driving
at low speed.
Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can
trigger the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to come on.
Tire pressure checked and inflated in:
- Warm weather can become under-inflated in
colder weather.
- Cold weather can become over-inflated in warmer
weather.
The low tire pressure indicator will not come on as a
result of over inflation.
The TPMS may not function properly if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire.
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
with a delay or may not come on at all when:
- You rapidly accelerate, decelerate, or turn the
steering wheel.
- You drive on snowy or slippery roads.
- Snow chains are used.
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
under the following conditions:
- A compact spare tire is used.
- There is a heavier and uneven load on the tires,
such as when towing a trailer, than the condition at
calibration.
- Snow chains are used.
* Not available on all models
When the system senses a loss of front wheel traction, it automatically
transfers
some power to the rear wheels. This allows you to utilize all available traction
and
may increase mobility...
You must start TPMS calibration every time you:
Adjust the pressure in one or more tires.
Rotate the tires.
Replace one or more tires.
Before calibrating the TPMS:
Set the cold tire pressure in all four tires...
Other information:
The steering wheel height and distance from your body can be adjusted so that
you
can comfortably grip the steering wheel in an appropriate driving posture.
Pull the steering wheel adjustment lever up.
The steering wheel adjustment lever is under the steering column...
Rotating tires according to the maintenance messages on the driver
information
interface helps to distribute wear more evenly and increase tire life.
Tires without rotation marks
Rotate the tires as shown here.
Tires with rotation marks

The seat belt system includes an indicator on
the instrument panel to remind the driver or a
front passenger or both to fasten their seat
belts.
If the ignition switch is turned to ON
*1 and
a seat belt is not fastened, a beeper will sound
and the indicator will blink. After a few
seconds, the beeper will stop and the
indicator will come on and remain illuminated
until the seat belt is fastened.
